Formula decal question

I have 90 Formula that is getting painted next month. I was wondering what everyone's opinion is on the factory decals. I am painting it solid red( red/silver now) and considering leaving all decals off for a cleaner look. My question is how would it look with no decals or with 4th gen decals. If I do put any decals on it they will only be on the doors. How much do these usually cost. My car currently looks like Zepher's car with 92 taillights if this helps.

I had my Formula 350 painted this summer, and I got the decals from www.Phoenixgraphix.com for about $128. It included nose and sail birds, front and rear bumber "Formula" decals, the door "Formula 350" decals (which it came with from the factory ) and (2) "5.7L F.I." hood scoop call-outs. They look factory.

Here's a pic of my 90 Formula without the decals, i will be getting a set but just haven't gotten around to it yet. the only differance from stock is i changed the bumper covers with ones from a 84.

My car would look just like the 90 in the pictere except that I am using factory bumpers and I don't have T-tops. I may just put the 4th gen door decals on if I can find them at a reasonable price. I am not putting a full decal kit on my car. I appreciate the link. I looked on other web sites but couldn't find a listing for the door decals only. I would appreciate any suggestions.

I appreciate the link, but the more I think about it, The more I think I will leave it plain. I like the way the car above looks and I really liked the car they featured in CarCraft. I guess I could always add them later. Thanks for your replies.

I left the billboard FORMULA 350 decals off the doors, and instead used two smaller bumper decals on the fenders.
